I mean artificial assistants aren't exactly a new thing, they've been around a long time before the AI boom. It's most likely supplemented through some models, but this whole boom of calling everything AI just to boost sales got boring very quickly. Recently I've seen an ad for AI roomba.
Also It's better to have something than nothing, not to mention that daz support responds relatively quickly imho.

Nah man Claude 4.1 opus is a beast and so is anything powered by it's api Gpt5 I haven't used by it's said to be "better" or comparable to 4.1 opus with a drastic reduction in api cost.Doubt they are using anything good(stand corrected gilf gives actual older women while no ai optimized gives golf results).

Daz gotta work on their backend, the product library is like sorting through a loaded dumpster.Disabling item category/type filtering on promo listing is nasty work.Would take those fixes over ai anyday.

Oh yeah kinda late but G9 $5. Never saw her on the promo pages ,but she is new and likely this price today or this weekend only.

She was one of the two newest Daz+ releases yesterday, that they usually add to the store on Tuesdays and Fridays IIRC. Buying both Daz+ new releases of the day has the advantage of adding an extra 30% discount on the price of each, I believe. And they normally select four older Daz+ products from their catalog on these Daz+ release days, so that you can buy them (all of them or any of them) together with these two new releases. Having both Daz+ new releases together with any of these selected older Daz+ items in your cart should make the price of the latter get an extra discount of 60%, I believe.

I'm not sure of this, but I remember reading that this promotional offer runs for a whole week after the release day. I don't know for sure. Normally, when I'm interested in these Daz+ new items, I buy them on the release day.

Lucky you, that has never, ever, been my experience; it is even worse when it comes to correcting over-charges on invoices.
Also, I find it particularly irksome when there are flaws in a 24Hr promo and support does not address it in time to make the advertised deal.

Wholeheartedly agree, there are so many backend problems they should be fixing rather than chasing vacuously fashionable frontend widgets.

So you like sharks....

Edit... Also HumbleGift on renderhub has a sale, they are thicker but buddy is never included in the sales cycles ,ends in 2 days

Btw. realized I am going about this wrong was literally about to get Sakura and Letcia (painful because i can get 7 - 10 daz characters at that price but these have the commercial / extended licenses build in). Then I'm like wtf the difference is really tits because the oriental appearance there are face mods for that.Plus the bodies are gonna be modified by me anyways.

Then a light bulb moment(always knew but was hella lazy)....my assets library is now mature enough to make around 80% of characters I want , will just take hella time (then again having a full fridge will go buy food on the road) . Shifting the focus on body/part morphs ,unique character shapes .Oh and nice skins on that hannibal lecter vibe. What yall think

I've actually been kind of trying to stay away from this thread at least somewhat, cause it always makes me buy stuff instead of doing something with the stuff. So I tried concentrating on that Sync Studio thing I am doing instead (which btw. is that free Daz to Blender/Blender to Daz thing I talked about to ouch2020), for some reason I always develop tools rather then games, so I have plenty of those now.

I looked at my Daz library and wondered "If I render one Daz asset per day, how long would that library last?" and then I calculated that and it came out to something like I need to get to life until I am 120 years old to be able to do that... so I kind of felt like I probably have enough stuff now.

Buying more is sadly kind of fun though.

Yeah still buying ish as well ,after that post got Jennifer(and others) yesterday and Thalya today -_- . There are some characters creators that will get my money with unique assets . I cannot build a Jennifer and the Thalya shape is an excellent G9 base for my thicker characters (or so I tell myself)

Btw why would you move from daz -> blender back to daz? I'm trying to use daz to make the base then everything else in blender mainly for automation .Blender is the way.

And daz be doing nasty work, only daz math gives me an extra 10% to have most characters cost the same as yesterday.Sigh it's hard not to buy a long time wish list item that's now $1.49

I feel you, I got into daz quite recently, started out small, but then some really good deals dropped, I decided to buy the sub, and i noticed ive started devoting waaaay too much time to purchase optimizing rather than what i wanted to do in the first place. So yeah dont beat yourself up if you miss one deal, theres always gonna be another one. Meanwhile ill grind my sub out and go on a hiatus after it runs out. But i still need to grab something for batch rendering, bummed out about manfriday, ill probably try to look for render doctor.

~25% discount if you have subscription
What subscription?

I have Daz+, you talking Premier?

Yes Outlet and Quick Grab are advertised at $0.75 for Daz+ but the "Daz+ Entire Order 5%" plus "Orange Banner 30% with code" + "8 Tokens" didn't change their cart price the were still $0.75 at checkout, not $0.71 ... admittedly the tokens and orange banner would not normally apply ...

I meant the 0.99 to 0.75 drop etc. Its written on outlet store that their prices are fixed and cannot be dropped any lower with any discounts.

Then it isn't an "Entire Order Discount" — Daz3D have a penchant for False Advertising

[EDIT] Note the only stated exclusion was Memberships [/EDIT]

Caution
This looks very enticing ... However the 'Debut New Releases' includes 3 Bundles which encompass 9 of the other new releases and today's 'Golden Ticket'*.

My cart shows that adding the 3 Bundles and the 'Golden Ticket' with 8 Tokens the cost works out to $3.05 per item — that is 9 items plus the duplicated GT.

So, do some experiments with your cart, and don't put 10 new releases in your cart unless you are okay with being locked into the above deal.


[EDIT] * Golden Ticket not required if you already have bought one, without it unit cost is not affected [/EDIT]

At least today's golden ticket item is clothing, well Valkyrie armor, that is designed for 8, 8.1 and 9...


This was well timed, as my tokens are about to expire (again)! I wish tokens would just go away, but yeah they seem to be here to stay.

I have too many characters already, and haven't jumped on the G9 bandwagon much at all. I have extensive head/body morph collections for G8 and G3, and just don't want to have to buy a bunch of new head/body morphs for G9, as I'm pretty happy with G3/8. So G3/8 stuff makes me happy...

Now to see what oaiki is on about r.e. discounts!
:p
